Popis: Self-esteem is known to refer to respect for one's own person. In this study, we aimed at examining this issue as it is manifested among young adults. Material and Methods To achieve the goal set we used the self-esteem questionnaire for the self-evaluation of self-esteem developed by Fr. Ch Leorda and Andre (1999). The study was conducted on 55 students at the University of Medicine, aged between 18 and 24 years. The overall results outline the fact that 62% of the subjects achieved between 0-7 points, 36% between 8 and 15 points, and only 2% of the study subjects scored between 16 and 21 points.
